Scottish Government tenders, awards, and pre-procurement notices.

The Scottish Government is a devolved central government department that buys through its Scottish Procurement and Property Directorate. The directorate also runs frameworks covering construction, corporate services, ICT, professional services, utilities and HR. Many of these frameworks are open to the wider Scottish public sector as well as central government.

The Supplier Development Programme offers free tender training to SMEs and third sector organisations.

Over the past 5 years, most of the Scottish Government's contract awards have been in business services, IT services and research and development.
